Jimmy Kimmel Opens Up About Late-Night Exit Following Stephen Colbert Finale: ‘I’m Looking At My Own Future’ - https://www.huffpost.com/entry/jimmy-kimmel-late-night-retirement-plans_n_6a1f3373e4b032392fa6c1b5

"Following the end of “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” the future of late-night television looks even bleaker with one less host on the air. And few have been more outspoken about the genre’s tumultuous state lately than Jimmy Kimmel.

The long-running late-night host didn’t mince words last month when he went after CBS for “pushing” Colbert and his team out the door, as “The Late Show” aired its final episode. In light of that, Kimmel reflected on what his own exit from late-night might look like in the future in a recent interview with Vulture.

“I feel a little bit defeated by it,” Kimmel told the outlet of Colbert’s farewell show last month. “In a lot of ways, I feel like I’m looking at my own future.”

Oddly enough, that almost was Kimmel’s reality after ABC suspended his show in September following the host’s comments on Donald Trump’s reaction to Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The network brought his show back less than a week later, but that hasn’t stopped further threats from Trump or quelled talk that the late-night landscape is still collapsing."
